NSC LMV934MAX

LMV931 Single / LMV932 Dual / LMV934 Quad
1.8V, RRIO Operational Amplifiers
General Description
Features
The LMV931/LMV932/LMV934 are low voltage, low power
operational amplifiers. LMV931/LMV932/LMV934 are guaranteed to operate from +1.8V to +5.0V supply voltages and
have rail-to-rail input and output. LMV931/LMV932/LMV934
input common mode voltage extends 200mV beyond the
supplies which enables user enhanced functionality beyond
the supply voltage range. The output can swing rail-to-rail
unloaded and within 105mV from the rail with 600Ω load at
1.8V supply. The LMV931/LMV932/LMV934 are optimized to
work at 1.8V which make them ideal for portable two-cell
battery powered systems and single cell Li-Ion systems.

LMV931/LMV932/LMV934 exhibit excellent speed-power ratio, achieving 1.4MHz gain bandwidth product at 1.8V supply
voltage with very low supply current. The LMV931/LMV932/
LMV934 are capable of driving a 600Ω load and up to
1000pF capacitive load with minimal ringing. LMV931/
LMV932/LMV934 have a high DC gain of 101dB, making
them suitable for low frequency applications.
The single LMV931 is offered in space saving SC70-5 and
SOT23-5 packages. The dual LMV932 are in MSOP-8 and
SOIC-8 packages and the quad LMV934 are in TSSOP-14
and SOIC-14 packages. These small packages are ideal
solutions for area constrained PC boards and portable electronics such as cellular phones and PDAs.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
intended to be functional, but specific performance is not guaranteed. For guaranteed specifications and the test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
Note 2: Human body model, 1.5kΩ in series with 100pF. Machine model, 200Ω in series with 100pF.
Note 3: Applies to both single-supply and split-supply operation. Continuous short circuit operation at elevated ambient temperature can result in exceeding the
maximum allowed junction temperature of 150˚C. Output currents in excess of 45mA over long term may adversely affect reliability.
Note 4: The maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(MAX) , θJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is
PD = (TJ(MAX)–T A)/θJA. All numbers apply for packages soldered directly into a PC board.
Note 5: Typical Values represent the most likely parametric norm.
Note 6: All limits are guaranteed by testing or statistical analysis.
Note 7: V+ = 5V. Connected as voltage follower with 5V step input. Number specified is the slower of the positive and negative slew rates.
Note 8: For guaranteed temperature ranges, see Input Common-Mode Voltage Range specifications.
Note 9: Input referred, V+ = 5V and RL = 100kΩ connected to 2.5V. Each amp excited in turn with 1kHz to produce VO = 3VPP.
Note 10: Electrical Table values apply only for factory testing conditions at the temperature indicated. Factory testing conditions result in very limited self-heating
of the device such that TJ = TA. No guarantee of parametric performance is indicated in the electrical tables under conditions of internal self-heating where TJ > TA.
See Applications section for information of temperature derating of the device. Absolute Maximum Ratings indicated junction temperature limits beyond which the
device may be permanently degraded, either mechanically or electrically.

Application Note
1.0 INPUT AND OUTPUT STAGE
The rail-to-rail input stage of this family provides more flexibility for the designer. The LMV931/LMV932/LMV934 use a
complimentary PNP and NPN input stage in which the PNP
stage senses common mode voltage near V− and the NPN
stage senses common mode voltage near V+. The transition
from the PNP stage to NPN stage occurs 1V below V+. Since
both input stages have their own offset voltage, the offset of
the amplifier becomes a function of the input common mode
voltage and has a crossover point at 1V below V+.
This VOS crossover point can create problems for both DC
and AC coupled signals if proper care is not taken. Large
input signals that include the VOS crossover point will cause
distortion in the output signal. One way to avoid such distortion is to keep the signal away from the crossover. For
example, in a unity gain buffer configuration and with VS =
5V, a 5V peak-to-peak signal will contain input-crossover
distortion while a 3V peak-to-peak signal centered at 1.5V
will not contain input-crossover distortion as it avoids the
crossover point. Another way to avoid large signal distortion
is to use a gain of −1 circuit which avoids any voltage
excursions at the input terminals of the amplifier. In that
circuit, the common mode DC voltage can be set at a level
away from the VOS cross-over point. For small signals, this
transition in VOS shows up as a VCM dependent spurious
signal in series with the input signal and can effectively
degrade small signal parameters such as gain and common
mode rejection ratio. To resolve this problem, the small
signal should be placed such that it avoids the VOS crossover point. In addition to the rail-to-rail performance, the
output stage can provide enough output current to drive
600Ω loads. Because of the high current capability, care
should be taken not to exceed the 150˚C maximum junction
temperature specification.

Typical Applications
3.0 HIGH SIDE CURRENT SENSING
The high side current sensing circuit (Figure 2) is commonly
used in a battery charger to monitor charging current to
prevent over charging. A sense resistor RSENSE is connected
to the battery directly. This system requires an op amp with
rail-to-rail input. The LMV931/LMV932/LMV934 are ideal for
this application because its common mode input range goes
up to the rail.
2.0 INPUT BIAS CURRENT CONSIDERATION
The LMV931/LMV932/LMV934 family has a complementary
bipolar input stage. The typical input bias current (IB) is
15nA. The input bias current can develop a significant offset
voltage. This offset is primarily due to IB flowing through the
negative feedback resistor, RF. For example, if IB is 50nA
and RF is 100kΩ, then an offset voltage of 5mV will develop
(VOS = IB x RF). Using a compensation resistor (RC), as
shown in Figure 1, cancels this effect. But the input offset
current (IOS) will still contribute to an offset voltage in the
same manner.

Typical Applications
In Figure 3 the circuit is referenced to ground, while in Figure
4 the circuit is biased to the positive supply. These configurations implement the half wave rectifier since the LMV931/
LMV932/LMV934 can not respond to one-half of the incoming waveform. It can not respond to one-half of the incoming
because the amplifier can not swing the output beyond either
rail therefore the output disengages during this half cycle.
During the other half cycle, however, the amplifier achieves a
half wave that can have a peak equal to the total supply
voltage. RI should be large enough not to load the
LMV931/LMV932/LMV934.

4.0 HALF-WAVE RECTIFIER WITH RAIL-TO-GROUND
OUTPUT SWING
Since the LMV931/LMV932/LMV934 input common mode
range includes both positive and negative supply rails and
the output can also swing to either supply, achieving halfwave rectifier functions in either direction is an easy task. All
that is needed are two external resistors; there is no need for
diodes or matched resistors. The half wave rectifier can have
either positive or negative going outputs, depending on the
way the circuit is arranged.

FIGURE 4. Half-Wave Rectifier with Negative-Going Output Referenced to VCC
voltages. Remember that even with rail-to-rail outputs, the
output can not swing past the supplies so the combined
common mode voltages plus the signal should not be
greater that the supplies or limiting will occur. For additional
applications, see National Semiconductor application notes
AN–29, AN–31, AN–71, and AN–127.
5.0 INSTRUMENTATION AMPLIFIER WITH
RAIL-TO-RAIL INPUT AND OUTPUT
Some manufactures make a non-“rail-to-rail”-op amp rail-torail by using a resistive divider on the inputs. The resistors
divide the input voltage to get a rail-to-rail input range. The
problem with this method is that it also divides the signal, so
in order to get the obtained gain, the amplifier must have a
higher closed loop gain. This raises the noise and drift by the
internal gain factor and lowers the input impedance. Any
mismatch in these precision resistors reduces the CMRR as
well. The LMV981/LMV982 is rail-to-rail and therefore
doesn’t have these disadvantages.
Using three of the LMV981/LMV982 amplifiers, an instrumentation amplifier with rail-to-rail inputs and outputs can be
made as shown in Figure 5.
In this example, amplifiers on the left side act as buffers to
the differential stage. These buffers assure that the input
impedance is very high and require no precision matched
resistors in the input stage. They also assure that the difference amp is driven from a voltage source. This is necessary
to maintain the CMRR set by the matching R1-R2 with R3-R4.
The gain is set by the ratio of R2/R1 and R3 should equal R1
and R4 equal R2. With both rail-to-rail input and output
ranges, the input and output are only limited by the supply
